Wait a minute, the personality that PLAYED Miss Cleo was in Vice City herself as Auntie Poulet? Was the show itself trying to sue? I didn't know they owned accents.

Another fun fact about Vice City: the PS2 version has slightly different weapon models and one exclusive song due to trademark limitations.
 
I'm going to just guess that it isn't actually real and dipshit journos are backpeddling now. But if it was real I'd laught that Rockstar can't even get a remaster of a 2 decades old game in time for the anniversary.
because it's not real; BTW Tom Henderson (which is the guy which say that rumor) is a mostly Battlefield leaker, which gives ya more doubt to that

in other news, 3rd rate GTAO youtuber JKGamers is a pedo
 
That track needs a vaporwave treatment.

Also, I don't remember there being an Ammu-Nation in the mall...

Ammunationi was there in the original PS2 version. Can't speak for Xbox version.

The mall song caused my old TV's speakers to spazz the fuck out when the high notes would play. It was the ONLY time it ever happened with any game or movie or TV show.

Another fun fact about Vice City: the PS2 version has slightly different weapon models and one exclusive song due to trademark limitations.

Wasn't the song they originally removed Running with the Night? I feel like it was because I thought it was crazy cause I thought that was a staple song for Vice City then just found out I was the weird kid that heard it a lot when I played.

Also I think they changed a lot of weapon names after the first version came out due to the names being copyrighted. That was around the time gun companies started clamping down on games.
 
I started replaying San Andreas. Just as fun as I remember. It's weird how I find myself fucking around a lot more when there isn't such a heavy emphasis on the narrative (and there are actual fun things to fuck around and do)

The one bad or weird thing I forgot about was just how much shit there is that they never fucking tell you about. Basketball, Pool, the courier missions and even though they tell you about it they never really *tell* you where to find the burglary van. I guess that kind of makes exploring a bit more fun but there's just way more crap than just the offroad missions and such from GTA III and Vice City it feels like.
 
you might miss the prompt (if there even is one? I can't remember)
I think there's a quick prompt after the first Jizzy mission, and R3 after that. It has to be a specific top-down caddy. Pretty obtuse.

They do tell you after that mission you do with Ryder where you steal that old man's home

It literally just says "you need a van like this to do burglary missions" but don't actually tell you WHERE the van is. I know my first playthrough in 2004 I just drove around hoping to find it before some schmuck on GFaqs told me it was down the street lol
 
The most shocking part about this is he's still not done, how shit of a remaster is it if it takes more than 1 hour just to get through all of it's problems?
The absolute best that I can say about it is that it offers Xbox owners an easy way to experience the game.

Such a god awful way to celebrate its anniversary, those rumored remakes better not be butchered like that.
 
Going to the beach in GTA V while playing this song on Non Stop Pop was a great idea:


Their radio station along with Radio Mirror Park was the best to listen to when you’re just going on a stroll in the sand while looking at the ocean.

That was always GTA's appeal. Exploring the world and that ONE song just comes on.

This song goes great just driving on the countryside in San Andreas.
 
I know I already said it, but Summer Madness while cruising down Ocean Beach between the time the sun is setting to being straight night is my definitive Vice City memory. The mix of neon on one side, with the varying darkening colors of the sky on the other with that song playing is just *french kiss*
